Verse: EmAm7EmAm7 G* My lover's got humor, she's the giggle at a funeral Am7EmAm7Em Knows everybody's disapproval, I should've worshipped her sooner Am7EmAm7 G* If the Heavens ever did speak, she's the last true mouthpiece Am7EmAm7D Every Sunday's getting more bleak, a fresh poison each week Cadd9 We were born sick, you heard them say it EmAm7EmAm7 G* My church offers no absolutes, she tells me 'worship in the bedroom' Am7EmAm7D The only heaven I'll be sent to is when I'm alone with you Cadd9 I was born sick, but I love it. Command me to be well GCGCGCm7G Ay Ay Ay Ay Ay Amen Amen Amen

Verse: EmAm7EmAm7 G* If I'm a pagan of the good times, my lover's the sunlight Am7EmAm7D To keep the Goddess on my side she demands a sacrifice Cadd9 Drain the whole sea, get something shiny EmAm7EmAm7 G* Something meaty for the main course, that's a fine looking high horse Am7EmAm7D What you got in the stable? We've a lot of starving faithful Cadd9 That looks tasty, that looks plenty, this is hungry work
Chorus: GG/F#Em Take me to church I'll worship Bm9 Like a dog at the shrine of your lies C I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife GCG Offer me that deathless death, good God, let me give you my life GD/F#EmBm9 Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies C I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife GEm Offer me that deathless death, good God, let me give you my life
Bridge: CGBEm No masters or kings when the ritual begins CGBEm There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin CGBEm In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene CGBEmDCadd9 Only then I am human, only then I am clean
Chorus: Em Take me to church I'll worship Bm9 Like a dog at the shrine of your lies C I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife GCG Offer me that deathless death, good God, let me give you my life EmBm9 Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies C I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife GCGD/F#Em Offer me that deathless death, good God, let me give you my life
